Customer Care from 717-230-1178 - I don't think so...
Received a no message call from this number soon after getting one from this number:
Starnet Paetec or Paetec Starnet take your pick called yesterday and then just moments ago - again no message.
My research found that they,Paetec were bought up by Windstream which I think is an energy provider. Who we have gotten calls from before:
717-484-8110 D & E Windstream utility scam? 6.13, 7.13 8,13
Adamstown, PA came soon after:
484-359-2848 robocall scam ?
never leaves message.
Since I don't pick up unknown numbers and they don't leave messages, I'd say we are even.

I read an article in the paper in February that basically says anyone in Pennsylvania who has switched electric providers will get these calls from other companies until, and if when ever the Electric providers are deregulated. Doesn't matter who your provider is they have to give out your number. There may be a way in writing to stop it, but if you didn't do it right away you are stuck getting these calls. The whole idea was to let other power companies try an divide the monopoly of one or two big companies. But it back fired because of two things. One) most folks didn't want to switch and Two) Those companies trying to sway you just are not polite. There is a difference between dead air calls or telemarketers telling you that you are a twit if you don't switch to them or asking you politely how they can better your electric rate. It seems most of the hired hands would rather be rude. I don't see them having great success with that tactic. And I don't know other than reporting the number how to stop them. Since they don't clearly identify themselves. Coming up in Caller ID like this latest number will not get me to answer the phone.
Received a call @ 1:00 from PPL on my cell phone! Was not happy they called the cell phone and then they had the nerve to put me on hold! We don't have PPL, we have Met-Ed as our electric company. Am on the DNCR for land line and cell phone. I guess it doesn't matter that we are on the registry.
I just got a call too. It can't be a real electric company. Not only am I on the Do Not Call List, but I just got a new phone number YESTERDAY and no one has it yet!!!
Great... already getting solicitation calls on a brand new number...
I too just got a message If I Wanted to be Placed on the Do Not Call List - press 1. I'm just going to block the number.
Noticed a call from (717) 230-1178 on my iPhone. Did a Google search and found all of the comments. I will now block this caller. If you have an iPhone, it's easy to block any call. From the Recent call screen, you will see a blue "i" to the right of the number calling. Select the blue "i" and scroll to the bottom of the caller information screen and select "Block this Caller". No more calls from said party. This option may not be available on older models.
